Thanks @JDB I wasn’t aware of the Aviation Services Law.
I am wondering in general if their are any kind of parameters for Air traffic control restrictions/cancellations. It seems to be very vague and open to abuse by airlines as their is very little transparency with reasons given for cancellations

I wouldn’t get too hung up about the reason – airlines do have to justify refusal of compensation for ‘extraordinary circumstances’ but will rarely do so to the passenger, but only when pressed by a court or ADR service. The Israeli law rights are in addition to your UK261 rights and whatever the reason for the cancellation, you are entitled to the cost of accommodation/food etc.
